Answer: 3/7 is the pocket money he spends on sweets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount student spends be x

He spends 17/35x on transport and fruits

He spends 5/6 (x - 17/35x) on sweets

5/6 * (x -17/35x)

5/6 * 18/35x

= 3/7x

nlexa [21]

The simplified expression would be 3s + 15.

In order to find this we need to write an equation for the longest side. Since it's 3 more than twice as much as the smallest side (s), we can express it as 2s + 3. Now we simply add all 3 together and simplify.

2s + 3 + 12 + s -----> simplify

3s + 15
